The "Oregan Files" has been one of my favorite series for a very long time. There are 17 books in the series and whether or not there will be any more after book #17, is anybody's guess. If there is...then there will be many more hair-raising adventures with Juan Cabrillo and the Oregan crew...if there isn't...it was a tremendous, unforgettable time that I will always remember. The Mystery & Suspense group on LibraryThing has been reading this series as a group since 2016 and we just finished this one, #15. The real "hero" of this series is The Oregon... a deceptively derelict-looking tramp steamer that contains more than a few "fun gadgets" cloaked in secrets. It was designed and run by her brilliant and heroic captain, Juan Cabrillo and his expert crew, as a for-profit Corporation, guided by Cabrillo's extremely moral compass, these books never fail to impress and captivate. We first met the Oregon, and her crew many years ago when they were first introduced as "guest" in another Cussler hero's series...Dirk Pitt, in Flood Tide ...another Cussler series well worth the time to read. This one is mostly set in Australia; our usual crew have to deal with a couple of dastardly Chinese business-people and their plan for a 'bigger than life" disaster during the Sydney new year celebrations. As usual, Clive Cussler and Boyd Morrison have written a tale that is exciting as well as thrilling. The technology is believable, (I want some of it), and the plot is absorbing. The usual heroes are heroes in very sense of the word and the villains are as vile as they come...making for another great read. I have read all the "Oregon" series and they are the type of books that will keep you up all night reading...in a word..."Superb". I thoroughly enjoyed Marauder by Clive Cussler. Juan Cabrillo and his mates travel the seas in the new Oregon. There are thrilling land and sea battles taking place, but their foes tend to be one step ahead of them in their quest to unleash a biological agent over Australia. Can the team succeed in disrupting this event? A real edge-of-your-seat thriller. no reviews | add a review

Not quite as gripping as other recent entries in the series. This one is still fun and satisfying. ( )
